Application 2  
Adding speakers to remote locations around your home:  
Audio sources that can be used in this application may be an A/V  
receiver or audio receiver, a portable audio player, or a computer  
featuring a sound card. First, determine whether your source  
contains RCA-type preamp outputs for the front/main channels or a  
1/8-inch stereo single-pin output. On an A/V or audio receiver, the  
preamp outputs are usually indicated by RCA-type jacks on the back  
of the receiver labeled as “pre-out” (please refer to your source’s  
owner’s manual to confirm whether it includes preamp outputs). If  
your source includes these RCA-type outputs, follow the steps in  
Connection Option A.  
If your source features a 1/8-inch single-pin stereo jack, follow steps  
in Connection Option B. If your receiver does not feature either type  
of preamp outputs for the front/main channels, it cannot be used  
with Control 2.4G. Some computer sound cards feature more than  
one 1/8-inch single-pin jack. There is almost always one output that  
is called a speaker output. However, some sound cards feature a  
preamp output or line output in addition to or instead of speaker

OPERATION  
Adjusting the Volume  
ID Code  
In the unlikely event that you experience interference when  
operating the system, or if you have more than one set of Control  
2.4G transmitters and receivers in operation, you may change the  
channel in which the system operates. On the transmitter module  
and the active speaker, there is a four-position “ID Code” selector.  
Simply set the selectors to one of the other positions. The transmitter  
and active speaker must be set to the same position in order for the  
system to function correctly. You can also set up a maximum of two  
pairs of speakers to be receiving from the same transmitter by  
setting the channel selector on the transmitter and both of the active  
speakers to the same channel. Please note that the two active  
speakers need to be at least 10m (33 feet) apart, or reception and  
operating range in one or both units may be degraded.  
Application 1  
Adding surround speakers to a home theater system:  
In this application, the output level of your Control 2.4G active  
speakers will not only be dependent on the volume setting of your  
A/V source, it will also need to be properly adjusted after installation  
and before use in order to be able to work correctly with the other  
speakers in your multichannel surround system. To adjust the output  
level, turn you A/V source on, set your A/V source’s volume control  
about a third of the way up, and activate the speaker-level-  
adjustment test tone. Make sure that the Control 2.4G transmitter  
and speakers are on, both of its speakers are connected, and there  
is RF lock (i.e., lower LED on active speaker is solid green). Using the

You will be increasing and decreasing the output level for the entire  
surround sound system using your A/V source’s volume control.  
Please note that Control 2.4G will retain its volume setting when it is  
in standby, so there is no need to set its volume level every time the  
system is turned on.

The JBL On Air Control 2.4G wireless speaker system includes a  
Depending on the type of connection and the specific source that  
you are using, the volume setting on your receiver may affect the  
sound output level of your Control 2.4G. To check whether the output  
from your source is volume-dependent, turn the volume level on your  
receiver to approximately half-way. Turn on your Control 2.4G  
transmitter and active speaker. Once the lower LED on the active  
speaker lights in solid green, indicating that RF lock has been  
achieved, verify that there is sound output from the active speaker.  
Then increase and decrease the volume control on your receiver  
and observe whether this affects the sound output from your active  
speakers. If it does not, then the volume control on your source unit  
can be set at any position that you may desire as it does not affect  
the performance of Control 2.4G. If changing the volume setting on  
your source does affect the output from Control 2.4G, then you will  
need to always keep your source’s volume control at about half-way  
up with audio receivers or A/V receivers, at about three-quarters of  
the way up when using a computer, and at maximum if using a  
portable audio device. From this point on, you will use the remote  
control included with the JBL On Air Control 2.4G wireless speaker

subwoofer output  
on the rear of the active speaker. This output  
allows you to feed the low-frequency sounds to a separate powered  
subwoofer. A powered subwoofer will deliver deeper bass response  
than is possible with speakers alone.  
To connect a powered subwoofer to the active speaker, simply

connect the subout  
on the active speaker to the line-in on the  
rear of the powered subwoofer using a 1/8-inch stereo mini-jack –  
dual-RCA cable (not included*). Please note that this output is full  
range and not filtered or low-passed. Make sure that your powered  
subwoofer features a low-pass crossover network and that this  
crossover is indeed selected. Do not use the LFE input on a powered  
subwoofer as it is not filtered and you will be hearing a lot of  
undesirable higher frequency information from your subwoofer.

A Word About Wireless Products  
The JBL On Air Control 2.4G wireless speaker system utilizes  
advanced wireless transceivers operating in the 2.4GHz frequency  
band. This is the same frequency band that is used for wireless  
home networks and high-quality cordless phones. It also allows for  
the transmission of high-performance, full-spectrum sound to  
remote locations, wirelessly.  
Local Input  
The JBL On Air Control 2.4G wireless speaker system also includes a  
8
local input  
on the rear of the active speaker. This input allows you  
to hook up a portable audio player directly to the speaker wherever  
you may happen to be. For example, you could have the system  
connected to your receiver as described in Application 2, listening to  
a local FM station and then hook up your portable music player to  
the local input and switch between the two different sources.  
Like all wireless devices, the JBL On Air Control 2.4G wireless  
speaker’s operating range may vary depending upon variables such  
as building construction methods and materials, atmospheric  
conditions and other sources of interference. Please consult your  
information or assistance.  
To connect portable audio player to the active speaker, simply  
connect the preamp out, line out or headphone jack to the line-in  
on the rear of the active speaker using a 1/8-inch mini-jack –  
1/8-inch mini-jack cable (not included).

WALL AND STAND PLACEMENT  
Adjustable wall brackets are included for the two speakers and  
transmitter module. The included bracket are for wall-mounting only.  
It is not to be used for ceiling mounting. Ceiling mounting of the  
Control 2.4G transmitter and/or speakers is not recommended,  
regardless of bracket used.  
A. Loosen and remove the molded nut (2) by turning it counter  
clockwise. Use the supplied metal bar (5) if necessary by inserting  
it in one of the holes on the molded nut (2).  
B. Pull the ball/shaft (3) out of the wall bracket (4).  
Wall-Mounting the Speakers  
Using Wall Brackets Provided  
C. Slide on the molded nut (2) onto the ball/shaft (3) with threaded  
opening facing the ball, and thread on the metal nut (1) all the way  
onto the ball/shaft (3), with the nut’s (1) ”knurled” surface facing  
away from the ball.  
Important safety note: Proper selection of mounting hardware not  
included herein, and proper assembly and installation of brackets,  
including, but not limited to, selection of appropriate weight-bearing  
support and bracket use with the specified speaker only is the  
exclusive responsibility of the customer. Manufacturer disclaims any  
liability for the selection of mounting hardware and/or bracket  
installation.  
D. Screw on the ball/shaft (3) into the threaded 1/4"-20 insert on the  
back of the speaker cabinet (6) until it is fully seated against the  
bottom of the insert. Back out the ball-shaft assembly 1/2 of a turn  
and tighten the nut against the speaker. If the ball and shaft  
assembly is not backed out before tightening the nut, performing  
Step G below may dislodge the threaded insert in the speaker  
housing and permanently damage the speaker.  
E. Tighten the ”knurled” nut (1) using a crescent wrench until it is  
firmly seated against the back of the speaker and has fully locked  
the ball/shaft (3) and the speaker cabinet together. Pleace note  
that once this nut is tightened, it may embed some marks on the  
back of the speaker where the attachment is made. However,  
these marks will be covered by the nut (1).  
F. The back-up cord (8) is provided as an additional measure to  
prevent the fall of the speaker in case the speaker becomes  
detached from the wall bracket.  
One of the two lower screws (9) that attach the wall bracket (4) to  
the wall will need to go through the eyelet (11) at the end of the cord  
before going through the wall bracket hole. Mount the wall bracket  
(4) onto a wood stud on the wall, using #10, minimum 1-inch-long,  
panhead wood screws. Make sure that all 4 screws are driven into  
the stud, not drywall. If the bracket needs to be mounted on  
drywall, the use of properly selected and installed wall-anchors  
and screws is essential. Make sure that the screw head is at least  
0.36 of an inches (approximately 3/8 of an inches) or larger in  
diameter so that it can properly hold the backup cord eyelet (11).  
G. Holding the speaker cabinet (7) with both hands, reinsert the ball  
portion of the ball/shaft (3) into the wall bracket (4).  
H. Hand-tighten the molded nut (2) while positioning the speaker for  
the intended orientation.  
I. Once the orientation of the speaker is finalized, use the metal bar
